What does the output of this program means?
I am trying to get the maximum virtual memory of the current process in Linux. And I am using getrlimit() I get -1 in both values. Shouldn’t I expect the virtual memory max allowed for the current process ? Answer The value RLIM_INFINITY denotes no limit on a resource (both in the structure returned by getrlimit() and in the structure
linux – serial port programming ( ASCII to Byte )
I tried to receive data from serial port. However, those data is unrecognized to me. The root cause is because those are in ASCII. To decode the data, it needs to be the byte formate. The buffer I’ve created is unsigned char [255] and I try to print out the data by using Two questions here: The data might is

Any equivalent function to pthread_getcpuclockid since i have tid of Thread
To get perf statistics of parallel running threads – To get list of threads I use thread list in /proc/self/task Now I want to get ID of a thread’s CPU time clock. But clock_getcpuclockid only works with PIDs. pthread_getcpuclockid requires the pthread id of thread and I did not find any way to get pthread id from TId of thread
fgets return less characters
I’m writing an assembly program for practice. The assembly program uses the c library functions. I’m concern in particular with fgets() function. The fgets manual page states: I have declared a buffer of 1024 bytes and used it in the fgets funtion to read text from a file. But the program is returning 1019 characters. It always seem to return
